A @Christadelphians Video: Description: The Bible view of being saved by Jesus Christ is not the same as the common understanding. Belief is the first step and salvation is reliant on God’s grace but also on our belief and action in baptism and faith. Only those who try to do what Christ has instructed will be saved. Those saved will gain eternal life in the kingdom of God on earth and glorify God forever.
